I’m getting ready to hotwire board #2 from a block of EPS I have ordered. It’s going to be a singlefin shape in the style of a Spacecake or CI MSF. I’ve checked the archives, read everything and I still need advice on the rocker dimensions, or better yet, blank selection for a singlefin in the 6’9" - 7’ range, 2 3/4" - 3" thick. Don’t worry, I’m making my own outline template, so I don’t need negative criticism on “copying” the Spacecake or MSF. I’ve already made a couple of outlines based on those boards. Any input on performance characteristics would be appreciated.
~close to 2 inches rear rocker
~5 inches front
If I was using the Clark Foam catalog as a guide, what would a suitable blank be?
Blakestah’s numbers are a good jumping-off point. I’d check out the “A” series blanks in 6’9" for the shorter version, or the 7’3" for the larger. If you’re going to be surfing small, mushy waves with it, you can also check out the 7’3 (B), which has less nose rocker. These are all based on Clark specs, and have worked for me in the past.
Good luck!
